You’ll be as shocked as I was to learn that ACORN is involved.

Sorry, couldn’t resist the headline. But it’s true.
Not.
Glenn Reynolds has a link roundup.
Robert Wagner considered killing Warren Beatty.
Too bad he couldn’t work up the nerve. It would have spared humanity from both Ishtar and Bulworth.
Mike Griffin says that space exploration is crucial to the survival of humanity.
Jack Murtha is going to be sued for slander. Here’s hoping that he loses big. It would be great if he’d actually lose his seat in a few weeks, but that’s probably too much to hope for.
And I guess my title libels actual bags of scum. Hope they don’t sue.
Obama’s plans would be pretty hard on us.
It’s not surprising. He’s never displayed any knowledge of, or interest in business. If anything, his attitude (and unfortunately, John McCain’s as well) is that there is something ignoble about profits (hence his self-righteous preening about his choice of becoming a community organizer instead of “going to Wall Street”).
Jeeeeez. Hint, ladies. Persuasion is not force.
Corruption in Chicago? Who could imagine such a thing?
Madigan’s office has notified Obama’s presidential campaign of the probe, which was launched this week. But Obama’s actions in awarding the money are not a focus of the investigation, Smith said.
Questions about the grant, though, come as spending on local pet projects has become an issue in Obama’s campaign against John McCain.
Obama and Kenny Smith announced the “Englewood Botanic Garden Project” at a January 2000 news conference at Englewood High School. Obama was in the midst of a failed bid to oust South Side Democratic Rep. Bobby Rush for a seat in Congress. The garden — planned near and under L tracks between 59th Place and 62nd Place — fell outside of Obama’s Illinois Senate district but within the congressional district’s borders.
Obama vowed to “work tirelessly” to raise $1.1 million to help Smith’s organization turn the City of Chicago-owned lot into an oasis of trees and paths. But Obama lost the congressional race, no more money was raised, and today the garden site is a mess of weeds, chunks of concrete and garbage. The only noticeable improvement is a gazebo.
Guess he got too busy running for the next office.
I’ve never been there, but here are some spectacular pics.
